Hey you people!!!!!! The jEHOVA wITNESSES are a dangerous bunch of fanatics. Not that much different from the taliban. The difference are the guns and bombs the taliban have. The jw'S are armed with their devious brainwashing techniques. Only the watchtower, bible and track society interprets the bible and all the members are to believe it without question. They are like mindless sheep who allow others to do their thinking for them. They destroy lives and families with their fanatical dogma.
@Angies3babies I hope you will show her this video and the other videos here on Youtube that caution youngsters against being baptised until they are of an age where they know fully well what they are getting themselves into, and the consequences of deciding against being a JW, after baptism, later in life. JWP
Jesus said "I am" which is name of God in Judaism meaning self existing. Jesus was called Immanuel. Jesus was called the Son of God making himself equal with God. JSW is false since there defination is place over the Bible and Judaism.
yea there may be some witness parents that push their kids to get baptized so other can praise him but this does not describe the typical parent of Jehovah's witness. I feel sorry for you if that's how your parent was when you were growing up. But the majority of us teach our children first and foremost. If your parent did not teach you when you were a child that's very sad and Jehovah will call him to account in the future.
before you get baptized you must study. Something this little girl has not obviously done so this parent obviously wants his daughter to get baptized for his own affirmation. I have children and I study with every week. And once they grow to love Jehovah then they will ask me what they must do to get baptized. (Just like my daughter just asked to join the ministry school). And even then if I sense they still need progress then they won't be getting baptized.
I am not JW but i don't see a problem with being baptized at age 10 (as a kid). I do think this is a strange religion. What I don't like is their coming to your house. Fine believe what you want but don't go pushing your beliefs on me. I don't go their houses and push my beliefs on them.
@416mcp JW's consider their preaching in fullfilment with matt 24:14 that in order for the end to come the goodnews has to be preached on the earth first.. so its not to push their beliefs on ppl but to give all a reasonable oppurtunity to learn what the bible teaches, so that when gods day comes they cant say they didnt know...
@sINGG66 Only problem is that they preach the teachings of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society and not the Word of Jehovah God alone. The "free" Bible Study they offer is not a study of the Word of Jehovah God alone, but a scripted study based upon Watchtower beliefs. And those beliefs are "twisted" and backed up by the NWT that has also "twisted" the original Greek scriptures to support Watchtower beliefs. The "gospel" they preach is not the gospel the apostle Paul spoke of.
@jwpublisher1 im sure if the person did not want to learn from the watchtower or awake the jw would be more than willing to teach with the bible alone. The books they use are not to take the place of the bible but to be used as bible aids to understand the material being considered. All that is taught by jw's is supported by scriptures and if one scripture is not enough they usually find multiple ones to explain the point. Such a difference from most religions bcuz they encourage bible reading.
@sINGG66 You could not be more wrong! Reading the Bible alone, without Watchtower guidance is against Watchtower policy. The August 15, 1981 Watchtower is one place where JWs are instructed to NOT read the Word of God without Watchtower guidance. As far as I know this guidance has not been changed by "new light". It says if you only read the Word of God you will revert to the beliefs of mainstream Christianity. Imagine that!
@jwpublisher1 not sure where u got the term "watchtower policy". and wasnt trying to debate or argue, I just tried to explain to one person why jw's preach. This religion in itself truly demonstrates where it stands when it comes to upholding bible principles and also as a whole practice what they preach. It sounds like instead of really trying to understand the material you read your tryin to find fault. The saducees even found fault with Jesus (In there eyes). Believe what u want Eccl 3:7.
@sINGG66 Yes I find fault with the JWs, and there is MUCH to find fault in. I find NO fault in Jesus, and to equate HIM with the JWs is rediculous. Call them what you want, "policies", "doctrines", "official positions"... the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society has an Official Stand on hundreds of Bible beliefs. For example, try being a JW and smoke a cigarette outside the Kingdom Hall after Sunday service and you will find out what the Watchtower's Policy is on smoking!
@sINGG66 you are so wrong. It's actually the opposite of what you said. They use the bible only as aid and the Watchtower publications as the main learning tool to their false teachings.
baptism doesnt save anyone. and baptism is a choice....a choice that if anyone has interest in...will be encouraged...this video is joke & false. This video is made to pollute the image and purpose of what JW intentions really are. this is sad
@msvioletteful If your comment were true, then I wouldn't have so many ex JWs commenting that this is EXACTLY what happened to them when they were children. The purpose of this video is to educate people that JWs take baptism VERY seriously because you are then subject to disfellowshipping if you ever decide to leave the organization, and I want the children to know they should not let someone pressure them to be baptised, but make their OWN decision. You missed the point.
@vstorck No, but children are pressured into getting baptized by their parents all the time. Just read some of the comments former children of JWs have written on this video and you will see that they say "that's exactly what happended to me". No one said Susan was being forced into getting baptized in this video, and no one has said that anyone is forced to be baptized as a JW, but the pressure is put on children and teenagers by their parents to be baptized into the JWs.
@jwpublisher1 Right, they are "encouraged" and "logically..it would be a good thing" and 'evidently it is the only..." Jesus didn't even rush, he was an adult when he made that choice. The pressure is intense. They may not "tell" you to, but there is definite pressure to do it. There is def love bombings for those who do get baptized young. Circuit overseer once asked me at 14, "why aren't you baptized yet?" pressure.
@Danmera Thank you so very much for your comment. It is important for current JWs to know that this happens VERY often, with life-long consequences when these children, who were pressured into being baptized at a young age, decide to leave the organization when they are adults.
Lmao this is so true it's not even funny. The ONLY inaccuracy I see in this video is how the dad encourages her to get baptized at 10. The rest is absolutely true though. JWs are pretty fuckin ridiculous.
@MistahFen MATTHEW 15:11 "Not what enters into [his] mouth defiles a man; but it is what proceeds out of [his] mouth that defiles a man.” To you learn from that scripture? No one was arguing the premise of the objectivity of the composition. You need to refrain from conjecture without clear thought of fallacy and sound logic. Your comprehension is totally convoluted. At the age of eighteen (18), you are no doubt an arrogant rash immature vulgar smart mouth. You are on ignore.
If Jesus Christ was a perfect man, than this would preclude that he was also a perfect child. Subsequently, based upon this fact, Jesus Christ was still baptized at the age of thirty (30) years of age. Paul made the statement, "Become imitators of me as I am also of the Christ." Paul was later in his years before he started to be a follower of Jesus Christ. There has to be a complete understanding of all the ramifications of one dedicating their entire life to Jehovah God and his will.
This was great! Even if you get baptized as a minor by this organization, they still hold you to it...as if you actually understand everything as a 10-17 year old. How many people have changed their opinions or views by just becoming more experienced in life? jwpublisher1, this is accurate.
Also WTCOMMENTS has a great video on the hypocrisy of child baptism, and Shazloo has a good one on how unbiblical their baptism is...even though I no longer believe the bible.
@kpuc1973 Not to me, but it happens and has happened to many kids. Many people tell of this experience, thus the video. Here's a comment posted to this video right after I made it: " This discussion for me was "Well yer friends sister bla sister doda and sister ladeda are getting baptized at the summer assembly. Maybe you should consider it.... You don't want to be left out.. or behind.. and Armageddon is coming soon... don't you want to ensure your place in paradise?"
@jwpublisher1 Thanks for the cut and paste. I did scroll down and read that comment. It's nice you put up the video, but it's not drawn on personal experience and it's exaggerated, so it's not really useful. good propaganda tho.
Did you used to write the assembly dramas about "Bud" and his wife "Honey" who would do something like sell their house, car, clothes, leave their job and go pioneering?
Lots of people leave as adults many of which joined as adults.
@kpuc1973 Maybe they don't pressure them to this extent, but that's only because the brainwashing is so thorough that they don't need to. The pressure is societal as the unspoken rule is, if you're born into it, you're baptized in your early teens, unless they can get to you earlier. Every single young person in my congregation fell into this when I was growing up. The ones that didn't, ended up disfellowshipped before their 18th birthdays.
Jesus took an adult, and said to the children: "Unless you become like a big adult, you can never enter the Kingdom of Heaven" Or was it the other way round....???
LOL! I just about lost my breakfast. Although this video is very funny, it is also very sad because it is a TRUE example of what happens when someone leaves the WTS.
LMAO! ROFLMAO!! OMG I think I am gonna puke Im laughing so hard..
Yeah. This discussion for me was "Well yer friends sister bla sister doda and sister ladeda are getting baptized at the summer assembly. Maybe you should consider it.... You don't want to be left out.. or behind.. and Armageddon is coming soon... don't you want to ensure your place in paradise?

doesn't this fall into the category of the "straw man"??
describing the position the opposition "would" take and then knocking it down.
this is rubbish. very few parents pressurise their kids into getting baptised (and yes those few are probably wrong to do so).
peer pressure exists, but can be ignored.
it's a personal decision and should be made if/when the child is ready (even if they become an adult first)

They dedicate themselves to the name "God's Spirit Directed Organization" then jump in their pool and are fully immersed.
.
What is the last part of the body to go under the water?
.
It is either the Forehead or the Hand.
.
Once that happens the baptism is complete.
.
You are marked with the name you dedicated yourself to!
